Many people take the gift of sight for granted. There is no good way to describe how something looks to someone who has never seen before. Losing eyesight is a very real fear for many people. For some people, it is a fear they have to face. Many people go blind every year. Fortunately, some of those people are eligible for surgery to get their eyesight back through a procedure called vitrectomy.

Science has come a long way! In addition, the procedure is now available to animals too! One Irish Terrier got to see this science in action. Duffy lost his eyesight when his health deteriorated due to diabetes. His health improved but his eyesight was gone. He was left confused. He couldn’t see the loving faces of his family. He was disoriented in his new world.
